我这D样Top30有希望么，求帮选校在线等急

本科中下游985，华五硕士，主申美国NLP，或者AI Music等其他交叉方向都可以考虑。

本科均分只有89.6，排名前3.5%，拿过国奖，有一篇无用水刊二作（学生一作，是不是最好不写上去了因为太水了）。

硕士期间研究：
??- 在校方向NLP，一段科研投NLP顶会被拒，一段与USC老师合作短文投次顶会在审，现在还在和该老师继续开展一项新工作，申请前弄不完了。另外在学校实验室领导过一项开发项目，做了很多NLP相关的杂事。
??- MSRA实习一年，方向为AI Music，一段科研中了NeurIPS（这个工作所用技术其实和NLP一样，希望老师能够把它近似看作是NLP），现在还在合作推进第二个工作，申请前也来不及做完了。

总结一下：一作*1，一作在投*1，一作拒稿*1，一作在做*2（所以很尴尬，只有一篇中稿论文），另外有一篇EMNLP二作，一篇CCF-C二作，一篇ISMIR三作。

推荐信的话：自己学校导师强推+MSRA mentor推+USC老师推，后两者估计不会给强推。

T目前96，计划最近再考一次，应该有希望上100；G看情况考不考（大多项目都不要求），考也是裸考。

目前完全没套磁，估计12月初套一波，但是12.15大多学校就截止了，是不是也没啥子用了？

想申美国Top30的NLP方向，或者实在不行AI音乐方向也行，或者其实其他跟NLP沾边的方向都行（因为我觉得卷不过各位大佬，但是说实话如果差别太大的话我很难跨出NLP的舒适圈）。请问大家有什么选校或者老师的推荐吗？

目前选校：
彩票：USC、UCSD、NYU、UT Austin、UPenn
冲刺：Purdue、Duke、UNC
平申：OSU、Stony Brook
保底：TAMU

哈哈哈现在选校是极不科学的，想冲的彩票太多（没办法还是有点名校情结的）。还请大家补充补充、出谋划策[抱拳]！谢！

帮顶，加油

How could you be so productive in two years (or maybe just one year)... You are even more productive than a faculty member...

You could even mentor assistant professors...no kidding

I'm serious.

This guy only has ~12 first author papers but he is qualified to apply for an AP position in top 50 univerisities (from my perspective). If you can keep current publication speed, you might be able to publish 20 papers when graudate.

补充内容 (2022-11-26 06:32 +8:00):
1. I'll probably add MIT and other prestigious schools to the list if I were you.
2. List all articles, including these not accepted, on your resume.
3. Don't hesitate to reach out to professors before applying.
4. Why TAMU is "保底"? I think it is on the same tier as OSU and Stony Brook.

不差钱的话全申，这样就不用纠结选校了，没准还会有意外惊喜

Thank you! However, I am in fact not as productive as you thought, 'cuz I have actually spent 3 years on these. I tried hard 'cuz I really enjoy doing research, yet the awkward thing is there is only one accepted paper even though I have done many projects. Some are in progress and some failed. The low publication rate is believed adverse by some. And only having one first-authored pub makes me actually not very competitive compared to many candidates 'cuz they may have 2 or more pubs in the NLP domain.

Now the situation is, I really have done many things and have obtained some achievements, but they look not very strong. So it's kinda hard for me to know my level. If you have any advice about anything, would you please tell me? Many thanks!
